The trade was with a friend and everything went through fine (there was no bait and switch).

My money was deducted, but I did not receive the item. The friend does not have the skeleton but did receive the gold.

The trade happened inside a housing instance.

I noticed it was gone when I teleported from my friend's house into my own.

Has anyone ever experienced this bug before?

    Look buddy, you got scammed and the guy is also fooling you into believing it's a "bug". Report him.

    I had this happen once a LONG time ago, back when Nirn was introduced. A buddy (not a random dude, someone i still run with today) gave me a nirn, I made him a helm or something like that, gave him back the item, and it vanished. It was in neither inventory.

    I submitted a ticket and never got a response. I felt so bad, I made him another helm and ate the nirn.

    What do you mean by "the trade went though fine"? Obviously it didn't. Did he email it to you COD?

    I mean he submitted his offer, then I submitted mine and the transaction closed. It was routine.

    I had a similar thing with a painting. A friend traded a painting to me, but do you think either of us could find it in our inventory afterwards? We've still no idea where it went.

    There is a bug; if you have ESO Plus, but don't have auto-allocate resources into it; when you collect harvestibles with a full inventory, they'll just disappear. I don't know if that extends to other items in some circumstances, I have not tested it.

    If you can be anything, be kind.

    I'm wondering if maybe there is a bug with the new furnishing items.

    I bought an target skeleton at crown store today, had issues finding it to.
    Enter housing edit mode and look under workbenches.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Okay @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_EveP @ZOS_GaryA @ZOS_TristanK

    There is a bug when porting from someones house to your own you will lose item you traded in player x house.

    I confirmed with support that I did receive item from player but guess what it's gone :'( they said... Would get back to me...But a week later... I can say...Well. I did get help in game so I was lucky but the issue is real.

    Mine was 55k legendary posion cabinet.

    This is exactly what happened to me. I ported directly to my house from my friend's house after completing the trade. Glad we've narrowed down a potential cause of the bug at least.

    I submitted a ticket last week as well. They are still looking into it. I'm not going to stop bothering them until I get this item restored. As a paying customer of this game, I need to receive customer support when the product I pay for malfunctions.

    Best to trade via mail where he posts you the item and bills you to get it off the mail.

    There's something weird going on. I bought 5 items from crown store, put them in my house and they looked great. 10 mins later servers went down and when I returned to my house the said items had disappeared. I checked every way possible for the items but they've gone. Sent a ticket in and had 4 different ppl reply, that was 3 days ago and no answers

    Go into your home and enter the Housing Editor - on PC it is the "F5" tab
    • Look under the "WORKSHOP" heading,
    • Sub heading - Training Dummy.

    You might find it there.

    Good luck. o:)

    That costs extra gold. I always trade in person with people I trust. I don't expect the game to bug out on me.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

    It would be nice if they restore items cause by this bug. I would assume for some reason it's not assigning permission to traded player. I would think this is caused by an override in housing Editor code that gives items permissions to house owner and does change during trades.

    Which would leave me to jump to a bigger conclusion there could be issues with 2nd furniture unless some code in guild traders prevents such issues. This would be really worrisome have hews bane event when furniture nodes drop to reasonable prices.
    @ZOS_GinaBruno I really do hope you guys look at this.

    The better question is what kind of friend charges you that much? I gave my friend so much free stuff and I'm pretty poor.

    True but the cost is minimal and avoids any problems.

    180k for a target dummy was very cheap when I made the trade. I always pay friends and guild mates for services.

    I bought a set of Readable Books from the NPC in SkyWatch. I went to my residence and opened editor at my book shelf. I looked through all my selections no books. I left editor looked through my inventory no books. I thought I may not have completed the purchase correctly until I opened my bankers menu and found the books in a list of the items In the deposit menu. However when I tried to deposit I would get a tone and statement saying that item can't be deposited. I havent received a reply yet, but maybe you can look in your bank and see if this is what happened in your case also.
